Avenel, N.J.-based DSO Eastern Dental has teamed up with New York City-based BlueSleep, a specialty care platform, to advance medical-dental integration.
Through the partnership, the two companies will provide patients with sleep apnea and snoring solutions, according to a March 27 news release.
BlueSleep will handle the initial diagnosis and home sleep testing, and Eastern Dental will hone in on patient education, digital scanning and the delivery and titration of oral devices.
"Our mission has always been to provide patients with high quality, full-service dental care," said Ray Iannaccone, MD, CEO of Eastern Dental. "By partnering with BlueSleep, we are strengthening our commitment to clinical excellence and a patient-focused model by offering seamless access to the treatment of sleep apnea. This partnership represents the tremendous benefit of integrating dental and medical care."
Eastern Dental supports 20 dental practices across New Jersey, the release said.
